Overnight Open Thread (9-22-2014)We Fought the Poverty and the Poverty Won Despite the trillion$ and trillion$ spent over the last 47 years the poverty rate has remained essentially unchanged since 1967. Of course this is primarily because the poverty rate itself is a BS measure which only counts income before any benefits and is adjusted periodically so that approximately 14% of Americans will always be below the poverty line. Note that the poor of 2014 are much better off than the poor of 1967 and even better off than many of the 2014 middle class in Europe. Census counts a family as poor if its income falls below specified thresholds. But in counting family "income," Census ignores nearly the entire $943 billion welfare state.

Which means that the State Department is either gobsmackingly incompetent at their job or deeply disingenuous. Please make all wagers before reading the article.

Ten Facts from the ?#?Islamic_State? that everyone should know. And Bookworm points out that unlike other flavors of socialism Caliphate socialism is very up front with the fact that it's based on OPM (other people's money): In the caliphate, as I said, things are different, very, very different. The consumers are one perpetual class, always enjoying luxury, while the producers are another perpetual class, always suffering servitude. A case in point is the fact that, as you probably noticed, I left out Item No. 8 in the above list. That's the one that talked about paying for this socialist Islamic paradise: Clash of the religions...and idols. Next march I hope the Mothra girls get their own float.
